DIY thermostat...

The customer installed their own thermostat and it sounded like they had wired it wrong in their description.  

Turns out it was the shorted contactor coil that was causing the issues.  The Copeland SureSwitch was installed in its place.  The SureSwitch offers brown out protection and sealed contacts that don't pit or build carbon.

SureSwtich over view...

Through my testing of this device, it has proven valuable.  When I installed mine 5 years ago, I put my contactor in a drawer just in case.  It's still there. 

The Copeland SureSwitch is a solid state contactor with sealed contacts, it provides additional compressor protection from brownouts. 

My favourite feature of the SureSwitch is that it is designed to prevent pitting and arcing through its control function.

New contactors for all...

If you know what you're looking at, you can find problems like this without using any tools. 

Someone (the owner 😉) was playing around with the wiring.  I can only imagine it was because the right hand contact failed on the compressor contactor.  But he only did half the work. 

I had a chance to field test the Testo North America 860i as well.  The design is pretty sexy and it's super easy to use via the Testo Smart app.

New Smart Probes...

This was my initial test of the Navac Smart Probes.  I really like how the readings are displayed on the device so you can choose to use the MyNavac app or not. 

As shown in the video, the knob on the bottom of the pressure probe allows you to change it from the high pressure probe to the low pressure probe. 

More to come on these...

DIY or no?

I met up with Michael Cyr from Senville at the HRAI Heat Pump Symposium.  He caught wind of the DIY podcast we did with Gerry Wagner 

This is the first of 3 videos where Michael explains the business model of Senville and how they're changing things around a bit. He explains that their product must be technician installed for warranty and safety reasons. 

I installed Senville about 3 years ago and no call backs since.  I was impressed with the quality of it.

## Description:
We discuss how a defrost time clock operates using an ICM Controls Defrost Clock as our example.

Check out more ICM Controls here.


A defrost time clock initiates defrost of the evaporator coil in refrigeration applications.  In most cases, there are 4 defrost cycles daily ranging from 30 to 60 minutes per cycle.  

When the clock initiates a defrost cycle, the compressor is stopped as well as the fans.  Resistive heating elements are powered to melt the ice.  The defrost cycle will end on time or on temperature as explained in the video.

Zoned humidification...

We speak to Todd Clarke from Condair  about their MN humidification system.  MN stands for mesh nebulizer.  

The water is highly treated with reverse osmosis, filtered and sterilized with UV.  This prevents any deposit build up on the heads and ensures water is clean for the occupants. 

Each head has its own water feed and data cable.  Each area with an installed heat can be controlled independently for zoned humidification.  

Very cool product!

If you work in commercial HVAC or refrigeration and you've experienced what single phasing can do, you'll know it isn't pretty.  

Monitoring with a 3 phase line voltage monitor can help save compressors and motors.  

The ICM Controls 450A and 450A+ do a few things.  They monitor high and low voltage, voltage imbalance, single phasing and reverse phasing.

The Yellow Jacket RealTorque core Removal Tool fastens to spec.  The purpose of the core tool was originally to replace valve cores on live (under pressure) systems. 

Nowadays, we also use them to pull cores for evacuation and recovery.  They are a very handy tool to have around.  Most techs carry a few of these. 

Does anyone else use Refrigeration Technologies Nylog on their cores?

## Description:
We speak to Ejner Kobbero from Danfoss.  
We discuss the stainless steel TU thermostatic expansion valve.  The TU thermostatic expansion valve does not need to be wrapped during brazing.   We also do not need to use silver solder for dissimilar metals.  We can use straight silfos as the inner portion of the valve is coated with copper.

## Description:
The building manager reported that this Carrier rooftop unit was blowing fuses.  During troubleshooting of this HVAC system, it was discovered we had a dead short to ground on one condenser fan motor.  

Once the problem was discovered, the faulty condenser fan motor was isolated from the circuit.  This allowed the Carrier rooftop to run in cooling mode and keep the HVAC system up and running.

HVAC troubleshooting requires a very methodical approach.  Once you learn the basics and get down the method, you can troubleshoot anything

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QG-ScOIn_vY/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
When brazing a TXV (thermostatic expansion valve) it must be done correctly.  We also discuss liquid line filter driers briefly with Jamie Kitchen from Danfoss.  The TXV brazing tips included in this video include the following:  

1.  Getting the heat on and off quick
2.  Pointing the torch away from the valve
3. Protecting the valve from heat with heat absorbing putty (WetRag Putty)
4.  Ensuring there is good silfos penetration and a potential shoulder
5. Nitrogen brazing 

In this video we are using the Ambro Controls Oxyset with Precision Torch Tip, which allows technicians to carry a light weight tool and offers easier access into smaller cabinets due to its size.

Evaporator Delta T and Evaporator Temperature Difference are different.  Some HVAC technicians, helpers, and apprentices can get them confused.  

Both readings are very important in HVAC troubleshooting and require knowledge of how to attain them.  

Evaporator Delta T is the measurement of two points of the same medium, like air or water.  Evaporator Temperature Difference is the measurement of two points that include two separate mediums like air and refrigerant.

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Zd91qBM9BPM/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
An air filter and filter cabinet combo that has the potential for particulate bypass will create issues within an HVAC system.  For instance, any dirt/debris that is not captured can get caught on the secondary heat exchanger of a high efficiency furnace and/or evaporator coil of an air conditioning system.  This can plug the surface and also cause condensate management issues.  

Choosing a deep pleated filter will reduce the overall system static pressure as there is more surface area over a 1' filter for example.  In the video, we look at the AprileAire 1310  cabinet and 310 Merv 11 filter.  This filter will also reduce PM2.5 levels within a home and won't require to be replaced as much.  

Listen to this episode of the HVAC Know It All Podcast.  A deep dive on air filtration with Chris Howells of AprilAire.

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/U9Hx7o_xzMA/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
Flame rectification is the process of changing an AC signal to a DC signal.  During flame rectification, the ignition control will send an AC signal in the range of 90v to 120v, from the flame sense terminal. That signal is sent down the flame sensor wire and through the flame sensor, it is rectified using the flame as part of the circuit and allowing the signal to come in contact with ground.  A good ground is very important in flame rectification.  

In this video, the process of flame rectification is revealed on a unit heater.

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nZhIvUq2IK4/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
Last winter this Carrier rooftop unit was going off on high limit.  There was a problem with the gas valve in high fire and there was also a problem with the bypass damper on this zoned system.   The gas valve pressure would creep up slowly over time from 3.5" wc to almost 4" wc within a few minutes of operation.  For this reason, it had to left in low fire.  

The bypass damper was stuck in a closed position due to a faulty actuator.  A carrier controls technician diagnosed the problem and changed the part out.  

The gas valve at this point could now be changed , high and low fire pressures set and wired to provide high fire when needed.

Make sure to check your gas line for leaks afterwards, either with an electronic device or bubbles.

Sometimes we run into seized fan blades or fan wheels.  Utilizing a fan/wheel or hub puller can help in these situations.  

In this video we are using the Supco Hub Blaster to demonstrate how to use a hub puller correctly.  

Here are the steps in order:

- Lubricate the hub puller threads
- Clean the motor shaft and add lubrication to the shaft
- Fasten the hub puller to the fan hub
- Break the seize between shaft and blade with a wrench 
- Use an impact gun to remove the blade or wheel

***Important***

Do not use an impact gun before breaking the seized parts first.  You can damage your impact gun or the hub puller.

We visit a very cool high rise geothermal system (drilling done by Geosource) that was installed recently in place of resistive heating (base board heaters).  Each suite in the building has a stand alone heat pump that is individually controlled and fed by duty-standby pumps.  The geothermal loop also has a set of duty-stanby pumps.  The thermal exchange between geo and building is done through a heat exchanger.  

The future of hydronics, as it pertains to pumps and maintaining system pressure has come along way.  In the video we look at Armstrong DE pumps (design envelope pumps).  The pumps are outfitted with a display screen that allows the technician to read info like GPM, Amp draw etc.

## Description:
We walk through a cold weather, dual fuel inverter heat pump install and install tips.   A dual fuel heat pump system relies on the heat pump as the primary heating source with the furnace being its back up.  Every dual fuel heat pump job should start with an on site assessment and load calculation.  It's also very important to use the proper thermostat, that's capable of controlling dual fuel systems.  Making sure the thermostat is set up correctly is also very important.

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FdyTMA_0nCo/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
Heat pumps accumulate ice/frost in the heating cycle on the outdoor unit.  During the defrost cycle, the ice/frost will melt and water will drain out the bottom.  In cold weather applications, you may need a pan heater so the water does not re-freeze into ice.  Ice accumulation at the bottom of the outdoor pan can cause issues with fan obstruction and potentially cause coil damage if the ice is allowed to build up underneath coil.  In this video, we install an OEM drain pan heater on a Daikin outdoor heat pump unit.

The gas company came out and said there was a gas leak.  I went through the steps of leak checking the gas line and found there were no leaks.   The code requirement for this particular line is 15 psig for 15 minutes.  The gas line was pressurized to 15 psig for 30 miuntes and then leak checked after the rooftop isolation valve at a reduced pressure with soap.

## Description:
Checking actual furnace capacity can help determine how well the furnace is actually performing as compared to its the rated capacity.  This is a simple test that can be performed relatively quick with the right tools and every HVAC/furnace technician should be aware of its value.  In this video we utilized two Testo 605i smart probers in conjunction with the Testo Smart app.  One major component needed is airflow, you must measure the air flow or look it up in the furnace airflow tables as we did in this video and enter it into the app.

The electrical short revealed in the video is one that some HVAC techs have trouble locating.  It requires one tool, eyes.  In worst case scenarios, we can use a megohmmeter to find these shorts, here is an older video using a Supco M500 https://youtu.be/9kD4zmYCtl0.   Because they are at the top of the contactor or line side sometimes it's difficult to find, that's why the title, states "hidden electrical short".  Every HVAC/R tech should be aware of this issue.

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_PtYW79UZJk/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
Utilizing a UV light, such as the APCO-X, is just one component of indoor air quality.  Using a UVC light installed directly above the evaporator coil can help with coil sanitization and neutralization of biological contaminants.  Filtration, ventilation and humidity control must also be introduced to ensure indoor air is comfortable and healthy to breathe.  

In this video we look at the install process of the APCO-X from start to finish and some other considerations like moving the humidifier so it is downstream of the UVC line of sight.  

Listen to this podcast with Aaron Engel from Fresh-Aire UV on some UV light misconceptions.

## Description:
I recently installed the APCO-X TUVX-DER by Fresh-Aire UV with remote UV bulb.  There was not enough room to install the main unit above the air conditioner A coil, so the remote UV bulb kit worked perfectly in this scenario.  APCO-X is an indoor air quality device that de-contaminates the evaporator coil in a central air conditioning system with a UVC bulb, the TUVX-DER model with remote bulb allows for easy installation when space considerations must be made.  

The main housing was installed in the return plenum which also includes a UV bulb and titanium carbon matrix to help with VOC's and odours within a building.  Check out the video as I show you how to install the APCO-X TUVX-DER from start to finish.

## Description:
Total External Static Pressure is the pressure that is created external to the air handler or furnace in the duct system when the fan is operating.  In this video we discuss how to check TESP (Total External Static Pressure and why it's important to know.   We have many homes in North America with high TESP, this is usually caused by undersized duct work, or systems that or not balanced correctly as far as air flow.  If a home is having comfort issues or premature failures of ECM motors, checking TESP would be one of the first things on the list to check.

## Description:
Many HVAC/R technicians dream of one day becoming their own boss, it's natural.  In fact, that's one of the main reasons many individuals enter the skilled trades in the first place, to own a company that is theirs.  Before deciding to enter into business ownership, there are a few deciding factors at play.

## Description:
After a recent podcast episode with Jerry Myren from RectorSeal (listen here https://spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/sma4Dossatb)  I learned about the importance of surge protection devices and how they work.  On this Trenton refrigeration condensing unit, I install a RSH - VRM60 voltage monitor and an RSH - 50 surge protector.  The voltage monitor is used to set over and under voltages and it will shut the machine down if those parameters are reached.  The surge protector will protect system components from transient over voltages and surges caused by lightning strikes in the area.

## Description:
In recent years, brazing alternatives have been developed for HVAC/R techs for various reasons.  Fire watches and burn permits have a played a part, and also some buildings or applications won't allow a torch to be lit at all.  Due to this growing trend of making it more difficult braze, products from various manufacturers have been developed to make life easier whether it be refrigerant leak repairs or installation of HVAC and refrigeration equipment.  

In this video was look at four different products that give HVAC/R techs an alternative to brazing.  We discuss RectorSeal's Pro-Fit https://rectorseal.com/quickconnect-lp, CoolAir Products AC SmartSeal External and FixQuick https://www.coolairproducts.net/ac-smart-seal-external/  https://www.coolairproducts.net/fixquick/

## Description:
Nylog Blue is a thread sealant and assembly lubricant manufactured for the HVAC and refrigeration trade.  Nylog Blue is made from POE refrigeration oil and can help seal brass caps, flares, gaskets and all kinds of threads to help avoid refrigerant leaks.  It also helps to keep seals lubricated and never hardens.  

I made this video as there seemed to be confusion amongst many on its uses and applications.  I have been using the product since the early 2000s and have never seen it damage system internals.

## Description:
I responded to a service call for no cooling on a residential AC system.  After a short diagnosis with my Testo Smart Probes, it was clear that a lack of refrigerant was present.  After a refrigerant leak check with the Testo 316-3, a very polarizing solution was implemented.  

Check out my article on the process that should be followed before using a leak sealant.

## Description:
Emerson White-Rodgers has created a very unique contactor replacement option with the Multi-Volt SureSwitch.   The part can replace contactors with a 24v, 120v or 240v coil.  The electronic device has a built in algorithm to protect against brown outs and short cycling.   The device also has the option to pull up total compressor cycles to the nearest 100.   

The unit is sealed which prevents insects or debris from gathering on contacts and comes with a 5 year limited warranty.

## Description:
The Testo 560i Scale and Smart Valve allows HVAC and refrigeration techs to manually charge or auto charge by sub-cooling, superheat or weight.  In this video I experiment with the auto sub-cooling portion.  

The 560i scale and smart valve can be paired to a 557s or 550s manifold or Testo Smart app.  If you're using an older manifold, ensure to perform an update using the Testo Smart app to add the "Refrigerant Filling" line to measurements section of the manifold.  The smart valve can be opened to purge out refrigerant lines by by pressing the button 3 times quickly which is a nice feature.

## Description:
First time trying out the Supco TradeFox Refrigerant Line Cleaning Kit or any kit like it and very impressed with it.  The purpose of the kit is to flush line sets on equipment replacement or after a burn out.  It can be used on its own or with a flush chemical as well.  

The kit comes with several pigs (foam line cleaners) that are inserted into the launchers sized at 5/8", 7/8" and 1 3/8" with adapters ranging from 3/8" to 1 3/8".  The foam pigs are inserted into a launcher, once attached to the pipe and and pressurized with nitrogen.  There is a catch net that is installed on the other end to catch the foam pig.

## Description:
How To Check Evaporator Superheat - it is very important for any HVAC and refrigeration technician performing service, maintenance or start ups to understand superheat and how to check it.  Evaporator superheat is slightly different than checking superheat at the compressor and that is explained in this video.  Evaporator superheat can easily be checked by measuring the saturated conditions of the evaporator (SST) and then measuring the actual pipe temperature at the evaporator outlet.

## Description:
Many water cooled heat pumps and air conditioning systems use coaxial coils as a method of heat transfer.  A coax, for short, can be used as either the condenser or the evaporator in a heat pump system.  Building heat pump loops are usually kept at approximately 80 degree F.  Water cooled air conditioning and refrigeration systems also use coaxial coils.

## Description:
In this video we will discuss thermal camera uses for HVAC and HVAC techs while reviewing the Hikmicro B20.   Anything from air infiltration, to air flow can be looked at using thermal imagery.  We can take a more in-depth look at electrical panels and quickly scan for restricted filter driers as a troubleshooting example.  The price point continues to drop as well, making it more affordable for the average tech to carry on their truck.

Refrigerant high pressure switches are vital for system protection in air conditioning and refrigeration  applications.  Knowing how to set them is knowledge one should possess for different refrigerants.  
In the video, I use approx. 150 degrees Fahrenheit of saturation as a reference and then taking the corresponding pressure and using it as the high pressure switch cut out set point.

## Description:
Working on this Carrier condensing unit a while back and found a leak at the fusible plug on top of the Carlyle compressor.  In this video we cover the replacement of the fusible plug and during the job, we come across a challenge, as the new and existing plugs don't physically match up. 

Fusible plugs are meant as a one time use part, if the solder type material inside heats up to the point it melts, it will blow the charge.  It is acting like a relief valve and it will the relieve the compressor and or system pressure in the event the pressure/temperature relationship is elevated beyond it rating.  

Carrier and other manufacturers have used these in the past, but I would prefer to see a proper relief valve in their place.

## Description:
Troubleshooting HVAC equipment can be difficult at times, knowing and using the equipment's order of operation can lead you down the right track.  To understand this order you will need to study the wiring diagram, check out this article to help with that.  You will also need to do some observing of the machine as it starts up certain cycles, whether it be cooling, heating, de-humidification etc., they all have an order of operation from start to finish.  

Over time, this will become second nature as you gain experience with the machine.  When you fully understand the cycle, you can move through troubleshooting steps fairly quick.  As you're learning, it's important not to skip steps as you can miss out on important information that could help.

Gas distribution is extremely important through the pilot assembly or carry over tube, as they call it on a York RTU, and also through the main burner on any gas fired appliance.  If it's not correct or uneven due to blockages or cracks, burner light offs won't be smooth and there's also a chance of delayed ignition.

## Description:
I have been waiting to try the SUPCO Bearing Buster for a while on a jobsite blower bearing replacement.  This bearing was extremely tight as it had been on there for several years and very rusted underneath the bearing assembly.  Because the spider bracket could be removed, a puller could have been used in this situation, but I have found on tight bearings that the pulling force of a puller can damage the bracket and I wanted to give the Bearing Buster a fair go.  In some Bearing Buster vides I have seen, the bearing comes off in one shot, this is dependent on the severity of how damaged the shaft is underneath.

Quite a number of HVAC techs are not aware of how a vacuum pump gas ballast works or when to open or close it.  Some HVAC techs that I have spoken to have had no idea what a gas ballast was or that it even existed on a vacuum pump.

## Description:
This Keeprite condensing unit, for a walk in box, was not cooling on arrival.  Found that the thermostat was calling or appeared to be but that wasn't the case after further inspection.  It was quickly noticed that the liquid line solenoid valve was not energizing.  One thing I will say is that this little Keeprite for its age and appearance ended up running fairly well once it was up and going.

When it comes to core removal tools in the HVAC industry I haven't seen one that actually has a torque setting.  The Yellow Jacket RealTorque Core Removal Tool has this setting and I've tested out a few times and enjoy it.  It has a torque setting of 3-5 in-lb and I'll be honest, I wasn't tightening Schrader cores enough prior to using this tool.

## Description:
Testing a run capacitor can be done in a couple of different ways.  The traditional bench test method and underload.  There's a difference between the two methods,  as one is done with no power applied and a multi meter set to the microfarad setting and the other with power applied and connected to a load, such as a fan motor.  

Underload testing can be carried out using some readings and a formula as seeen in this older video, I apologize up front for the video quality, it was a Sonim haha https://youtu.be/8NHZa8JOq30.  Or can be done using the Supco IDVM-550 with the meter set to watts and liked to the TechLink app.

The leak was repaired with a combination of brazing, flaring and press fitting on this Daikin air handler.  I didn't want to braze in the server room and I equally wanted to press my first field fitting.  Pressure test, evacuation, charged with R410a and checked with the Daikin service tool by a Daikin factory rep.

## Thumbnail: https://i.ytimg.com/vi/IM0KmNLtJNE/maxresdefault.jpg

## Description:
The breaker tripped on this RTU, the blower motor had open windings and was the probable cause of the trip.  I used the Supco RedFish multimeter to troubleshoot the problem.  The contactor was inspected to ensure it was still in good condition.  The blower motor will need to be replaced at a later date, but it looks as though the contactor will be fine.   Fun fact, alkaline rain water can leave behind a white powdery substance that looks similar to hard water.

## Description:
This York Predator RTU had a problem engaging first stage cooling during the maintenance.  The main control board was only bringing on the 2nd stage compressor on a call for Y1.  I traced the control circuit through the economizer board back to the main board during the troubleshooting process.  These old York Predators are known for issues due to a negatively pressurized electrical panel that draws in water.

## Description:
This power exhaust contactor shorted across the line side voltage terminals due to dust/dirt/carbon tracking.  This usually happens when it's humid outside or raining and is sometimes hard to diagnose.  The moisture in the air embeds itself in the dust/carbon and allows current to travel across  the "track", to either short with one another or to ground.

Most techs tension fan belts by feel.  In order to tension a belt properly, a belt tensioner should be used to double check.  If a belt is too tight, it can put strain on bearings and wear pulleys down.  If too loose, the belt can squeel or slip compromising air flow.

Intermittent problems are the worst, this walk-in box evaporoator was leaking water droplets every so often and blowing fuses now and then.  I ordered a new drain pan and pan heater, if we were taking this thing apart, the right parts on hand is best for a then and there fix.  An additional two defrost cycles were added at a shorter run time to deal with the ice, the drain seal and slightly warped pan and pan heaters were replaced as well.  I can't imagine we'll hear from this unit anytime soon!

## Description:
Compressor oil return in an air conditioning or refrigeration system is super important.  Oil failure controls are implemented on larger semi hermetic compressors that utilize oil pumps to ensure the compressor is receiving the oil it needs to function.  Mechanical oil failure controls are very simple in the way they operate but do confuse some technicians.  I have seen too many oil failure controls get misdiagnosed and replaced when in fact it was an oil return issue causing the problem.

## Description:
Low ambient conditions can cause head aches with air conditioning and refrigeration systems.  Using condenser flood back to maintain discharge pressure is a great way overcome this problem.  Using a combination of an ORI valve and ORD valve can accomplish this task.  It will maintain discharge pressure by flooding the condenser while maintaining flow through the system.

## Description:
When working with hard copper in the field, you must anneal it first to swage or flare it.  What is annealing?  Annealing is a heat treatment that changes the properties of the copper to decrease or reduce its hardness and increase its ductility (able to manipulate it without fracturing or damaging it).  Why would you anneal copper in the field?  If for example, you don't have the correct fitting on hand or perhaps you want to avoid fittings all together to avoid potential leak points, save money on fittings and brazing materials.  No matter the reason, it is a skill that techs should put into their back pocket and save for a future job if needed.

## Description:
I performed a demo of the Supco Fuse Testing Super Kit and also covered how to size a low voltage fuse on the fly.  It is very important to protect transformers with a fuse or breaker so that any short in the circuit doesn't damage the transformer.  The Fuse Testing Super Kit by Supco can help track down low voltage shorts without the use of fuses.

## Description:
Performing an evacuation on an AC, refrigeration system or commercial chiller to below 500 microns is essential to it's future performance.  Pulling an efficient evacuation requires removing as many restrictions as possible and using large diameter hoses.  In the video we race to 500 microns on a chiller that had a compressor change and acidic oil.  Schrader cores were removed, large diameter evacuation hoses were implemented and a 12 cfm vacuum pump was put to work.

Check out this article which helps explain this process in more detail.

## Description:
It's always the TXV (Thermal Expansion Valve) haha.  The Danfoss TUA stainless steel txv is very unique as it doesn't need to be wrapped to braze.  Stainless steel conducts heat 11 times slower than copper.  Although, underneath the stainless steel is copper which allows for a copper to copper connection.  So, 15% silphos can be used to braze in this style of thermal expansion valve.

## Description:
In this video we look at a couple of HVAC service tips pertaining to condenser fans and frozen suction lines.  On a multiple condenser fan unit we can block off air flow to one fan section, if that fan has failed, to force air through the condenser coil.  When encountering a frozen suction line, don't immediately assume low charge or a metering device issue.  Check air flow first.

## Description:
Checking natural gas manifold pressure is very important to the health of the appliance to ensure it is not over firing or under firing.  In most residential and light commercial applications the inlet gas pressure to the gas valve is approx. 7-14 inches of water column, but it can be 2 psi or higher.  Outlet pressures can range but it is common to see 2.2 inches of water column in low fire and 3.5 inches of water column in high fire.

## Description:
In this video we tackle a crankcase heater replacement on a condensing unit.  The previous crankcase heater failed and shorted out causing an emergency call.  Crankcase heaters are an important part to maintaining a healthy compressor.  Liquid refrigerant can migrate on the off cycle to cold parts of the system.  Implementing a crankcase at the compressor will prevent that liquid from migrating and could avoid failure.

***Read First***

My pal Jason Rende has kindly reminded me that the discharge probe should be out of line of site of the heat exchanger if at all possible.  The placement of 605i sensor in the supply may have messed with the final result.  Although, the method and appliction still remains the same.  

Checking actual heat output, in BTU/H, of any system has become very easy to do this day in age with tools like Testo Smart probes in conjunction with the Smart Probes app.  In the video,  I check system air flow and entire system performance using a 405i and two 605i Smart Probes.

## Description:
Most all VRV and mini split air conditioner filters are washable and can trap mircobial and bacteria.  Using a filter cleaner like Chinook by Errecom can help reduce filter contaminants.  Spray the filter generously on both sides, shake off excessive cleaner and let dry.  Chinook has a slight neutral odour that dissipates quickly.  If the filter is extremely dirty, it may have to be blown out with compressed air or flushed with water before applying Chinook.  

Chinook is sold by Cool Air Products in North America https://www.coolairproducts.net/chinook-1lt/

## Description:
We verified the presence of a natural gas leak after an electrician smelled it in a commercial building.  We cut out the leaking section of pipe, installed an isolation ball valve on the branch line and re-piped it.  We leak checked all fittings and purged gas back to all appliances and ensured that they fired up.

In this HVAC video I respond to a call from a friend, her air conditioning unit was not working and freezing up.  She called in, what she thought was a reputable company.  They diagnosed the unit as being short of refrigerant, shut the disconnect off and left with zero repair or replacement options on the table.  He even went as far as stating that he didn't have access to R22.  AC Smart Seal Qucik to the rescue.

## Description:
HVAC technicians need a variety of repair methods in their tool bag. Refrigerant leaks are no different, most leaks are brazed using oxy-acetylene and silfos.  I was working in a server room with zero ventilation and wanted to try AC Smart Seal External on a capillary line rub out rather than spark a torch and create unneeded fumes. The repair went very well.  Others tools used...Testo 557 digital gauges, Testo 316-3 electronic leak detector, Viper BigBlu soap bubbles, Navac NP2DLM 2 cfm battery operated vacuum pump, Accutools TruBlu hoses and BluVac Professional Plus vaccum gauge.

## Description:
When it comes to make up air units, there are a couple of different types. Direct fired, like in the video, and indirect fired.  HVAC technicians should be aware of the difference.  Direct fired make up air units have the burner mounted in the air stream, the products of combustion are dumped into the space.  DF units must be mechanically interlocked with an exhaust fan(s) and are commonly used in kitchens and warehouse applications.  Indirect fired make up air units use a burner assembly that includes a heat exchanger, a common application for this type of unit is in multi story buildings for pressurizing hallways.

HVAC technicians must understand the concept behind dehumidification, how we use cooling to extract moisture from the air as it condenses on the evaporator coil and how we must reheat the air in certain applications so the space is not over cooled.

## Description:
In this video we branch out to some refrigeration on a walk in cooler.  The system is short on refrigerant and needs to be leak checked.  My leak checking procedure includes using an electronic leak detector and then soap to reveal bubbles.  Every HVAC/R technician should have a plan of attack to ensure they come out ahead when tracking down leaks.  This is my plan of attack, Happy HVACing!

Listen up HVAC beginners and HVAC apprenticeship candidates.  Starting out in a new field is not easy for anyone.  Starting out in the HVAC industry as a purely inexperienced HVAC/R apprentice is not for the faint of heart.  You will struggle, you will feel like you're not good enough, all normal...Trust me.  Find it within yourself to rise to the occasion and use any doubt from your HVAC tech coworkers as ammunition to prove them wrong.  Check out my podcast on this same topic that goes a little more in depth on how to be a successful HVAC apprentice.

## Description:
Nuisance and unexplained manual high limit trips on package rootfop unit heat exchangers inspired this video and can throw HVAC technicians for a loop.  About a year ago, we had several units off on manual high limit.  It was a thought that the fan delay, after a power outage, was allowing the residual heat from the heat exchanger to trip the limit switches.  This test proves that it is in fact a possibility and HVAC techs must be aware of this.  We re-wired the fans to bypass the time delay, so after a short power blip, the fans immediately start.  This has seemed to help...Happy HVACing!

I was sent out a sample of AC Smart Seal External months back.  I was skeptical and threw it in my truck and forgot about it.  I seen a bit of buzz over it recently and wanted to try it for myself, hence this video.  Things to keep in mind here...This is not a permanent fix or does not take the place of brazing.  This is a truck stock item to use in those very unique situations to keep a customer up and running until the  correct repair can be made.  A good HVAC Tech has a bag of tricks, not just one solution.  Happy HVACing!

I want to make a confession.  I do not put gauges on every system I walk up to....There I said it.  To be perfectly honest, I have units under my care I have not attached gauges to in over 10 years and there they are, cooling spaces on the hottest days of the year.  Granted, if you suspect a performance issue, or are setting up a new install, they are a must.  I prefer to use my manifold for set ups from scratch or after a major repair, but for minor system checks, if needed, I prefer my smart probes.  Happy HVACing y'all!

The unit was off on high head when I arrived, watch as I go through the steps to solve this issue.  One thing I left out was the fact that the voltages were checked and all within 2% across all  phases.  After speaking to the building maintenance staff, they informed me they have had the same issue with the vfd after a power spike every so often. Happy HVACing!

## Description:
Changed out a 3 ton scroll today on a little process chiller.  The job went quite well.  It was a rotolock compressor with service valves that allowed me to isolate the compressor from the system for a very easy change out.  A couple of things to pay attention to here if your eyes are quick enough.  One, the 552 vacuum gauge would not come down below 1500 microns...any guesses?  The service valves were leaking internally, once the compressor was under a deep vacuum, the pump started pulling gas from the system. Two,  the shot shows high super heat and subcooling.  The system was in "partial load" with the solenoid slammed shut and a minimum flow maintained with the hot gas bypass valve, just enough to not let it trip on the low pressure switch.  So here is My Day in 60 Seconds or Less.

Great for gaskets and all types of threads.  With quality tools and products, you can step up your game quite easily.

## Description:
A Copeland Digital Scroll compressor utilizes a piston attached to the top scroll.  At the top of the compressor sits a modulation chamber, separating the chamber and the discharge gas is a small bleed port.  A solenoid valve is piped between the top of the compressor and the suction line.  When the solenoid valve is energized (open), discharge gas bypasses into the suction line lifting up on the piston, separating the scrolls which unloads the compressor (stops pumping). When the solenoid valve de-energizes (closes), the piston drops causing the scrolls to engage which loads up the compressor (starts pumping). This compressor is used in conjunction with an electronic expansion valve and an Emerson EC3-072 Digital Scroll controller.  You can see in the video how quickly the  compressor is loading and unloading and how that effects pressures and temperatures within the system.  Hit the link for a good read on Copeland Digital Scroll compressors.

## Description:
Testo's arsenal of test equipment is complimented nicely with the 745 non contact voltage tester.  I've had this in my possession for a while waiting for the right time to display it's worth.  I was not receiving power to a freezer wrap around drain heater, the power originated from the condensing unit mounted on top of the freezer box and made its way through conduit and 3 junction boxes.  I followed the wiring through each conduit checking voltage at each box.  At the third box before the final termination, the power loss was detected due to a poor connection.  Once the connection was repaired, the heater functioned normally.  This method was much quicker than with a multi meter and safer, I did not have to pull apart live wiring at each box to check power.  The 745 can sense from 12v to 1000v.  High sensitivity measures from 50v to 1000v and low sensitivity from 12v to 50v.  The handy illumination light, illuminates the test area.

On both settings and several tests, it was clear as day...The low pressure switch wires were leaking.  This is not the first time I've witnessed this either.

"Whiskey on the Mississippi"
Instruments: Guitar, Bass, Kit, Organ, EP
Feel: Bouncy, Grooving
With a jumping bass and off-beat syncopation, this is straight from Memphis? Beale Street. The Hammond organ and electric guitar play together as longtime friends, while the melody changes hands from guitar to organ to electric piano.
